Each of us wants to thrive in our careers. During challenging economic times, we all have reason for concern as companies tighten their financial belts and we feel our careers are at risk. The user experience (UX) field is no different from any other field in this respect. But there is hope. How can we survive during difficult economic times? Jim highlights strategies that all of us in the UX community can employ to increase the likelihood of thriving, and thus, emerge better prepared for an economic upturn. He’ll talk about ways to make ourselves indispensable, and review examples that show how we can make our UX organizations indispensable. This way, we can protect our jobs, and also ensure that our groups are strategically positioned and valued by our companies.
